erection thereon of such building or buildings. In addition to
constructing such building or buildings, the commission shall also
install therein any and all equipment, appurtenances and paraphernalia

improve, landscape, embellish and beautify such grounds, and lay out
and install such walks, drives, fences and other necessary
appurtenances as may be deemed essential to produce an integrated and
artistic setting. Except as herein otherwise provided, the location and
area of the lands acquired and the character of the buildings, structures,
embellishments, ornamentation, equipment and other appurtenances
therein or thereon shall be determined by the commission.
